Today we went to the Douglas County Fair!  We haven’t been to a county fair in a very long time and it was a lot of fun!  We signed Ben up for the mutton bustin’ competition where kids can ride the back of a sheep just like the big guys ride broncos and bulls.  🙂  Ben got all dressed up in his best cowboy gear and was SO excited!

They got him all decked out in padding and helmet got him, situated on the back of a pretty big sheep, opened the gate, and off he went!  He didn’t last very long but he held on tight and had a blast!

He probably will weigh too much next year to do it but he told me that if he does, he’ll start losing weight so he can do it again!  🙂  I had a good laugh about that!  🙂

The young women were coming back to the fair for an activity to watch the bull riding competition, so Angela and Kirstyn left to go to the church.  The boys and I hung out at the fair for awhile longer, got some dinner, and enjoyed taking a look at all the animals and such!

What a great time we had!  Hope you enjoyed all the fair boys!  We’ll have to go back every year!  🙂
